After initially refusing the services of a guide - I have to admit that without the fantastic guide we had , we would not have enjoyed the visit as much. His knowledge was amazing and he is fluent in English and French. If you are planning to visit the Taj Mahal and the Fort I can highly recommend Mr. Azaz... more

One must visit Taj Mahal atleast once in his lifetime. It is the only place where you can understand the capability & capacity of our ancestors. It is very difficult to express the beauty & art in words. Carry camera along with you. Spend whole day there to experience different picture of Taj at various day timings. more

when we see Taj, most of us say ' wah Taj. but when we look around we see the bad infrastructure in terms of roads, good hotels to eat, cleanliness, improper transport. Govt of India should see to it that these things are improved and when one visits Taj, they also say ' Wah India' Thank you more

Its a great monument - a shining example of the love that existed between two persons - a great watch at any period/time - it is a proof that love transcends everything - time/place/period/emotions - Love is universal. more

Taj Mahal has always had precious memories from childhood... it was the romantic monument, the place my parents cherished, the holiday my grandmother wished to have with grand-pa.... and so I always wanted to visit there and watch the dream-scene I had woven turn into reality...... but my visit to Taj Mahal really shattered all the dream-scenes I had...... not... more

Seeing the Taj mahal is even better than you imagine its going to be. You enter the site through a gate at the side and see a large brown arch-way to your right. When you go through the archway you see this breath-taking site. It did literally take my breath away and made me feel weepy (with joy). We were... more

Go early before the crowds and with luck you will have an uninterrupted view from the archway opposite, frame the Taj through the archway and capture the essence of the Mughal Empire in all its magnificence. more

The Taj Mahal was far more luminous and amazing that I expected from photographs. It has an unearthly quality that one can only appreciate in person. It is almost floating, so ethereal. I would avoid the shops outside the gate, as they are rumored to sell fake marble that disintegrates. The further away you get from the site, the cheaper... more
